Maximizing Battery Life
Batteries are chemical devices. If the batteries are left sitting on a shelf
for long periods of time outside the CN3, the batteries slowly
discharge, eventually to zero if left uncharged. The battery chemistry
resists normal degradation if you store the battery in a charger as
opposed to leaving the battery in a discharged state. See the following
table for tips you can do to maximize the life of your battery.
Battery Conservation Tips
When You Want To:
Do This to Save Battery Power:
Operate the CN3 and the
Low Battery status icon

and charge the battery, then store both the
battery and the CN3 in a cool location.
If the battery in storage is not used in several
months, you should recharge the battery to
keep it at its performance peak.
Store the battery outside
the CN3.
Store the batteries in a charger.
Managing Power on the CN3
Several factors determine the life of your battery such as extreme
temperatures, input devices, and your usage.
By default, the CN3 goes into a lower power mode or turns off after
two minutes of inactivity. Press the Power button to resume activity at
any time.
9
There are several ways you can manage power:
•
You can set the amount of time that the screen stays on, or the
amount of time the CN3 stays on after the screen turns off. For
help, see “Customizing Power Timeouts” on page 11.
•
You can change the amount of time the screen backlight stays on.
For help, see “Configuring the Backlight” on page 23.
•
You can choose a Power Management Profile to manage power
based on the way you use your CN3. Each profile turns off the
screen and the CN3 at preset times, and maintains data
connections differently. For help, see the next section.
Choosing a Power Management Profile
1 Tap Start > Settings > the System tab > Power Profiler.
2 From the drop-down list, select Windows Mobile Classic,
Windows Mobile Standard, or Windows Mobile Phone. If the
list is grayed out, uncheck the Enable Advanced Settings check
box.
For more information, see the next section, “About Power
Management Profiles.”
3 Tap ok in the upper right corner to save your changes.
10
Power Profiler also provides advanced settings that allow you to finetune the power usage. You can choose to have the Power button turn
off the screen or turn off the device.
Note: You can also configure all of the settings in Power Profiler
using Intermec Settings. For help with Intermec Settings, see
“Configuring the CN3 Parameters” on page 45.
About Power Management Profiles
Use the Windows Mobile Standard profile (default) for applications
that power off infrequently, such as inventory management or
terminal emulation. If the CN3 does not have any activity, the screen
turns off, but WAN, LAN, or Bluetooth radio connections are
maintained in a low power state. If there continues to be no activity,
the CN3 eventually turns off LAN and Bluetooth data connections
and goes into Suspend mode. The CN3 maintains its WAN
connection during Suspend mode, and still receives incoming phone
calls or other data. To wake up the CN3 and restore other
connections, press the Power or Scan button.
Use the Windows Mobile Classic profile for systems that batch data
and upload it several times a day. This profile does not support
constant data connections over LAN or Bluetooth. It can only
maintain data connections when the CN3 is on and all peripherals are
enabled. If the screen is off, you do not have any LAN, or Bluetooth
connections, but the CN3 maintains its WAN connection and still
receives incoming phone calls or other data. To wake up the CN3 and
restore other connections, press the Power or Scan button.
Use the Windows Mobile Phone profile when you have a system that
requires network wake-up or you need the CN3 to always be
connected to the network. Although the connections are maintained
at a low power mode, this setting typically consumes the most power.
If the screen turns off, the radios continue to maintain the network
connections. To turn the screen back on, press the Power or Scan
button.
Customizing Power Timeouts
Note: When you set timeout values this way, you override values used
by the Power Management Profiles.
11
To customize power timeout values
1 Tap Start > Settings > System tab > Power Profiler.
2 In the Power Profile tab, tap Enable Advanced Settings.
3 Tap the Screen Settings tab to change screen timeout values:
•
Check the Enable Screen Off check box to be able to turn off
the screen independently of the CN3.
•
To change the amount of inactivity time before the screen
turns off, move the Battery Power or External Power sliders.
For battery power, choose from 1 to 6 minutes. For external
power, choose from 1, 2, 5, 10, or 15 minutes, or disable this
feature.
4 Tap the Device Settings tab to change power timeout values:
•
Check the Enable Device Off check box to be able to turn off
the CN3 by pressing the Power button. This feature is enabled
by default unless you are using the Windows Mobile Phone
power profile.
•
To change the amount of inactivity time before the CN3 turns
off and goes into Suspend mode, move the Battery Power or
External Power sliders.
For battery power, choose from 1 to 6 minutes. For external
power, choose from 1, 2, 5, 10, or 15 minutes, or disable this
feature.
5 Tap the Power Button tab to change what happens when you
press the Power button:
12
•
Choose Turn off the Device to put the CN3 in Suspend mode
when you press the Power button. In Suspend mode, data
connections (except for WAN) are turned off. To restore data
connections, you need to press the Power button to wake up
the CN3.
•
Choose Turn off the Screen if you want to leave the CN3 on
but with the screen turned off when you press the Power
button. This mode uses more power than Suspend mode, but
maintains all data connections. Press the Power button to turn
the screen on.

reducing the amount of time it takes your GPS receiver to acquire
a fix.
•
eliminating the need to obtain precise satellite data information
from the GPS satellites.
And, as a Microsoft software component, the GPSID also provides
these benefits:
•
It allows multiple applications to simultaneously access the GPS
data stream.
•
It provides access to GPS data without requiring applications to
recognize and parse NMEA syntax.

Configuring Wireless Security
The CN3 provides four types of security for your wireless network:
•
Wi-Fi Protected Access 2 (WPA2™)
•
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA)
•
802.1x
•
WEP
This section explains how to configure wireless security on your CN3.
If you choose not to use security, see “Disabling Security” on
page 70. Intermec always recommends that you implement security.
You must use either Funk or Microsoft security to implement your
security solution. For details, see the next section, “Choosing
Between Microsoft and Funk Security.”
59
If you are using WPA-802.1x, WPA2-802.1x, or 802.1x security, this
section also assumes that your authentication server and
authenticators are properly configured.
Note: Your security choice does not depend on your authentication
server. For example, you can choose Funk security if you use
Microsoft Active Directory® to issue certificates.
Choosing Between Microsoft and Funk Security
The CN3 supports both Funk and Microsoft security, which
dynamically select wireless networks based on your preferences. The
option you choose depends on your network security needs.
•
If you are using the CN3 in a static environment that requires a
high level of security, you should use Funk security, which offers:
•
CCX v4.0 compliance.
•
support for LEAP and TTLS.
•
configuration of up to four profiles.
To use Funk security, you need to select a profile. For help, see the
next section, “Selecting a Funk Security Profile.”
•
If you are primarily using the CN3 to connect to WiFi hotspots,
you may want to use Microsoft security.
To use Microsoft security, you need to select it as your security
choice. For help, see “Selecting Microsoft as Your Security
Choice” on page 65.
Selecting a Funk Security Profile
You can define up to four profiles for Funk security. Different profiles
let your CN3 communicate in different networks without having to
change all of your security settings. For example, you may want to set
up one profile for the manufacturing floor and one for the
warehouse. By default, the active profile is Profile 1.
Note: You can also use the Profile Wizard to configure most wireless
security settings. To start the Profile Wizard, tap the iConnect icon

Chapter 3 — Developing and Installing Applications
Developing Applications for the CN3
Use the Intermec Resource Kits to develop applications to run on the
CN3. The Resource Kits are a library of C++, .NET, Java, and web
components grouped by functionality that you can use to create
applications for the computer. The Resource Kits are part of the
Intermec Developer Library (IDL), and can be downloaded from the
Intermec web site at www.intermec.com/idl.
For more information, see the Intermec Developer Library Resource
Kit Developer’s Guide.
Packaging Your Application
For very simple applications, the executable file may be the only file
you need to deploy. More typically, you will have a set of files to
install.
Intermec recommends using .cab files to install your applications.
The CN3 uses standard Windows Mobile .cab files and will install
third-party .cab files.
Choosing a Target Location
You can have your .cab file place your application in any of these
memory locations on the CN3:
•
The ObjectStore.
•
The optional miniSD card. Depending on available disk space, you
may want to consider installing your application files on the
miniSD card. Using a card creates the Storage Card folder on the
CN3.
•
The non-volatile Flash File Store. Applications and data in the
Flash File Store will persist through a clean boot.
Note: The Flash File Store may be erased if you reflash the image.
72
Files copied to any of these locations are safe when you cold boot the
computer as long as the AutoRun system is installed in the
appropriate location. When AutoRun is installed on the computer, all
.cab files in the CabFiles folder are automatically extracted after a cold
boot. For more information about AutoRun, see the Intermec
Developer Library Resource Kit Developer’s Guide.
Installing Applications on the CN3
You can install files and applications on the computer by using:
•
SmartSystems Foundation.
•
Microsoft ActiveSync.
•
a miniSD card.
•
the CN3 FTP server.
For more information on installing applications, see the Intermec
Developer Library Resource Kit Developer’s Guide.
Installing Applications Using SmartSystems Foundation
Console
You can use the SmartSystems console to drag-and-drop Intermec
applications onto your CN3. The console is part of SmartSystems
Foundation. For more information, see “Managing the CN3 With
SmartSystems Foundation” on page 42.
To use SmartSystems console to install an application
1 Download your application file from the Intermec web site and
unzip it on your desktop PC.
2 Double-click the application file to install it. The application file
should appear in the Software Vault.
3 From the SmartSystems console in the Software Vault, drag-anddrop the application onto each CN3 in your network, or drop the
application on a group of CN3s contained in a folder.
You can also use SmartSystems Scan-to-Connect to connect the CN3
to your network and install software. For more information, see the
SmartSystems Foundation console online Help.
73
Installing Applications Using Microsoft ActiveSync
When you only have a few computers to update with applications, you
can copy files using Microsoft ActiveSync.
This procedure assumes that Microsoft ActiveSync is installed on
your PC and is up and running.
To install an application on the computer using ActiveSync
1 Connect to the CN3 via ActiveSync. For help, see “Connecting to
a PC” on page 43.
2 Copy the .cab files from your development PC to the CN3.
3 Warm boot or cold boot the CN3.
4 After the boot process is finished, browse to the .cab files and tap
the files to install them.
Installing Applications Using a Storage Card
For information on installing the miniSD card in the CN3, see
“Installing a miniSD or SIM Card” on page 34.
To install applications using the storage card
1 Copy your application file to the miniSD card.
2 Install the miniSD card in the CN3.
3 On your CN3, browse to the Storage Card folder and run your
application.
Installing Applications Using the FTP Server
The CN3 has a built-in FTP server that connects to a network through
Ethernet, 802.11b/g, or WAN (Wireless Access Network). You can use
the server to transfer your application file to the computer. Because
you can create FTP scripts to automate the process of copying files to
the computer, this option is useful when you need to send files to a
large number of computers.
The easiest way to manage the FTP server is to enable the FTP menu
within iConnect.
To enable the FTP menu
•
74
Create this DWORD registry key and set it to a value of 1:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\iConnect2\IConnect\Settings\ShowFTPMenu
The iFTP menu is available the next time you start iConnect.
To manage the state of the FTP server
•
Modify these existing registry keys:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\iConnect2\IConnect\Settings\FtpAutoStart
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\iConnect2\IConnect\Settings\FtpHeartbeat
where 1 = enable and 0 = disable.
Launching An Application Automatically
There are two ways to automatically launch your application when
you perform a reset on the computer:
•
Make sure your .cab file places a shortcut to your application in
the \Windows\StartUp folder.
•
Configure the AutoRun program to launch your application.
The computer contains a program called AutoRun.exe which
automates operations such as launching other processes. You can
configure AutoRun.exe through the AutoRun data file, AutoRun.dat.
For compatibility with other Intermec computers, you can place a
copy of AutoRun.exe in the same folder as your AutoRun.dat file but
it is not required.
To create and install the AutoRun.dat file on your computer
1 Create a folder called System on your CN3.
2 Open the Notepad application on your PC.
3 Write commands for AutoRun.dat using the supported AutoRun
script commands.
4 Save the Notepad file as AutoRun.dat.
5 Copy the AutoRun.dat file to the System folder on the CN3.
During every boot, the system scans for AutoRun.dat in the
System folder.
75
AutoRun supports the following script commands in AutoRun.dat:
AutoRun Script Commands
Command
Description
EXEC
Launches a specified program and waits for it to finish
(up to 10 minutes)
CALL
Processes a specified file of commands and returns.
CHAIN
Processes a specified file of commands and does not
return.
AutoRun handles quoted file names for the first parameter, which
allows you to specify path names or file names that contain white
spaces. AutoRun only supports one set of quotes per command.
For more information on AutoRun, see the Intermec Developer
Library Resource Kit Developer’s Guide.
Integrating Image Capture
The Image Capture application on your CN3 provides a way to
capture high-resolution grayscale images. You can integrate Image
Capture into your own applications to take advantage of this feature.
Calling Image Capture From Your Application
To integrate Image Capture features into your existing mobile
application, you need to specify two parameters:
•
Path to and name of the Image Capture application. Default is
“\\Program Files\\Intermec\\ImageCapture\\ImageCapture.exe”.
•
Path to and name of the .xml configuration file that Image
Capture should use when called by your application. This way you
can use a custom .xml configuration file based on your needs. If no
.xml file is specified, Image Capture uses its default settings, or
looks for an .xml file in its local directory.
This sample code calls Image Capture from its default location and
specifies “ImageCapture_Config.xml” as the custom .xml
configuration file to use:
76
try
{
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("\\ProgramFiles\\ImageCapture
\\ImageCapture.exe","\"\\Program Files\\MyApp\\ImageCapture_
Config.xml\"");
}
catch (Exception exception)
{
MessageBox.Show("Failed to execute \\ProgramFiles\\ImageCapture
\\ImageCapture.exe” + "\r\n" + exception.ToString());
}
Creating and Editing the Image Capture XML File
To further customize Image Capture features for use in your
application, you can create or edit the Image Capture .xml file. This
section lists Image Capture field names, valid values, and descriptions.

Freeing Up Virtual Memory for Applications
You can use the InstallSelect application to free up virtual memory
and create more space to load and run custom applications.
Note: InstallSelect is designed for use only by administrators,
developers, integrators, or Intermec service representatives.
When you free up virtual memory, you reduce the amount of virtual
memory used by portions of the SmartSystems Platform Bundle
(SSPB) by removing value-added software features. Be sure to close all
other applications and back up any related files before you use
InstallSelect. For more information on SSPB, see “Upgrading the
System Software” on page 82.
Removing software features may result in loss of computer
functionality or the ability to manage device settings. Contact
your Intermec service representative for information about each
software feature before making changes.
To free up virtual memory

Upgrading the System Software
When you upgrade your computer, you are updating the operating
system (OS) and the SmartSystems Platform Bundle (SSPB) files.
SSPB files are stored in the Flash File Store and deliver Intermec
value-add (IVA) functionality such as data collection, configuration,
Intermec Bluetooth integration, the Intermec wireless security suite,
and the SmartSystems Reference Client. As new features are added to
these components, you can update your SSPB files without updating
the operating system.
Alternately, you can choose to upgrade only the operating system. If
you upgrade only the operating system, you then need to reinstall the
SSPB files.
There are two ways to upgrade your computer:
•
You can upgrade your computer using the SmartSystems console.
For help, see “Upgrading the CN3 Using SmartSystems
Foundation” on page 83.
•
You can upgrade your computer using a storage card. For help, see
“Upgrading the CN3 Using a miniSD Card” on page 84.
Locating Upgrade Files
Before you can upgrade, you need to download the latest upgrade files
from the Intermec web site to your desktop PC.
82
To download the upgrade files
1 Open a web browser and go to www.intermec.com.
2 Choose Support > Downloads and choose these items:
a In the Product Category list, choose Computers.
b In the Product Family list, choose Handheld Computers.
c
In the Product list, choose CN3 Mobile Computer.
3 Click Submit. A list of downloadable software appears.
4 Look for the appropriate upgrade files in the OS/Firmware/
Drivers list, and click a filename to download it.
If you are managing the CN3 with SmartSystems Foundation,
Intermec Update alerts you when new upgrades or software are
available. You can have the upgrades and software installed to the
console for immediate use. For information, see “Managing the CN3
With SmartSystems Foundation” on page 42.
Upgrading the CN3 Using SmartSystems Foundation
You can use the SmartSystems Foundation console to upgrade the
operating system on your CN3. For information on using
SmartSystems Foundation, see “Managing the CN3 With
SmartSystems Foundation” on page 42.
To upgrade the CN3 using SmartSystems Foundation
1 On your desktop PC, open the SmartSystems console.
2 Make sure the SmartSystems console and the CN3 are on the same
subnet.
3 Make sure the CN3 is either in a communications dock or
charging dock, or the device power management is disabled.
4 Download the device upgrade file to your PC as described in the
previous section, “Locating Upgrade Files.”
83
5 Double-click the .exe file on your PC. An InstallShield application
starts and walks you through the process of extracting the
upgrade files to the default location.
Note: Do not change the default location where InstallShield
extract the files. The SmartSystems console requires the files to be
in this location.
6 From the SmartSystems console, locate the device upgrade to
install.
7 Drag the file to each CN3 you want to upgrade or to a group of
CN3s in a folder. The SmartSystems console installs the upgrade
on your computers.
After the download is complete, your CN3 replaces the operating
system and automatically performs a cold boot.
Note: The SmartSystems console displays a red stop sign symbol,
indicating that the CN3 is offline, until the CN3 reboots and
reconnects to the system.
Upgrading the CN3 Using a miniSD Card
To use a miniSD card to upgrade the computer, you need an SD card
reader and a miniSD adapter card formatted as FAT16.
To upgrade the operating system using a miniSD card

Problems With Wireless Connectivity
Problem
Solution
When you turn on the computer after it
was suspended for a while (10 to 15
minutes or longer), it can no longer
send or receive messages over the
network.
Host may have deactivated or lost current terminal
emulation session. In a TCP/IP direct connect network,
turn off the “Keep Alive” message from host to maintain
the TCP session while the computer is suspended.
The CN3 is connected to the network
and you move to a new site to collect
data. Your CN3 now shows you are not
connected to the network.
Move closer to an access point or to a different location
to reestablish communications until you reconnect with
the network. Any data collected while out of range is
transmitted over the network.
The CN3 appears to be connected to
the network, but you cannot establish a
terminal emulation session with the
host computer.
There may be a problem with the host computer, with
the connection between the server and the host
computer, or with the connection between the access
point and the host computer. Check with network
administrator to make sure the host is running and
allowing users to login to the system.
The CN3 appears to be connected to
the network, but the host computer is
not receiving any information from the
CN3.
In a TCP/IP network, there may be a problem with the
connection between the access point and the host
computer. Check with your network administrator or see
your access point user’s manual for troubleshooting
information.
Problems While Configuring 802.1x Security
Problem
Solution
The CN3 indicates that it is
authenticated, but it does not
communicate with the host.
Make sure the CN3 IP address, host IP address, subnet
mask, and default router are configured for your
network.
The CN3 does not appear to be
authenticating and a network
connection icon does not appear on the
toolbar.
The CN3 may not be communicating with the access
point. Make sure the network name (SSID) on the CN3
matches the access point network name.
802.1x security network may not be active. Make sure the
server software is properly loaded and configured on the
server PC. See the server software documentation for
help.
91
Problems While Configuring 802.1x Security (continued)
Problem
Solution
A network connection icon appears in
the toolbar, but then disappears.
The CN3 may not be communicating with the intended
access point. Make sure the network name (SSID) on the
CN3 matches the access point network name. Default
network name is “INTERMEC.”
The access point may not be communicating with server.
Ensure the access point is turned on, properly
configured, and has 802.1x security enabled.
You are setting up multiple access
points in a network, with different
SSIDs, and the connection fails.
The CN3 does not save WEP key values when changing
the SSID. Reenter the WEP key value after changing the
SSID and save your changes. You should now be able to
connect to the different access points.
The CN3 indicates it is not
authenticated.
Make sure that:
• the User Name and Password parameters on the CN3
match the user name and password on the
authentication server. You may need to reenter the
password on both the CN3 and the authentication
server.
• on your authentication server, the user and group are
allowed and the group policy is allowed to log into the
server. For help, see your authentication server
software documentation.
• the IP address and secret key for the access point must
match the IP address and secret key on the
authentication server. You may need to reenter the IP
address and secret key on both your access point and
authentication server.
• the authentication server software is running on the
server PC.
You receive a message saying “The
server certificate has expired or your
system date is incorrect” after you
perform a clean boot on the CN3.
Date and time are not saved when you perform a clean
boot. Reenter the date and time, and then save your
changes.

Resetting the CN3
You rarely need to reset the computer. If the computer does not
resume after pressing the Power button, or if the computer or an
application lock up, you may need to reset the CN3. The CN3 uses the
configuration currently saved in flash memory during the boot
process. There are three ways to reset the CN3:
•
Warm booting the CN3 can correct conditions where an
application seems to be locked up. For more information, see the
next section, “Warm Booting the CN3.”
97
•
Cold booting the CN3 restarts the computer if the computer
seems to be locked up, or if a warm boot has no effect. CN3
settings are saved, but transaction data may be lost after a cold
boot. For more information, see “Cold Booting the CN3” later in
this section.
•
Clean booting the CN3 erases the computer memory, including all
applications and files. Use this method only if warm booting and
cold booting the CN3 have no effect. For more information, see
“Clean Booting the CN3” on page 100.
Warm Booting the CN3
You may need to perform a warm boot to correct conditions where an
application stops responding to the system.
To warm boot the CN3
•
Press and hold the Power button for 10 seconds.
Or,
•
Right-click on the CN3 via the SmartSystems Foundation Console
and choose Intermec Power Tools > Warm Boot Device from
the pop-up menu.
The computer systematically shuts down, restarts, and goes through
the initialization process.
Cold Booting the CN3
In some cases where the computer completely stops responding, it
may be necessary to perform a cold boot. Because cold booting may
result in data loss, only use this method if all other recovery methods
have failed.
Note: Cold booting the CN3 does not guarantee that cached disk
data will be saved, so transactional data may be lost during the reset.
All other data, such as CN3 configuration and network settings, is
preserved.
To cold boot the CN3
1 Press the Power button to suspend the CN3.
2 Remove the battery pack from the CN3.
98
3 Use the stylus to press the Reset button on the back of the CN3.

Clean Booting the CN3
A clean boot erases the memory in the mobile computer,
including all applications and data files found in the ObjectStore,
and loads only the default files and programs required by the
CN3 operating system.
If the CN3 seems to be locked up, try warm booting and then cold
booting the computer. If neither method works, use a clean boot to
get the CN3 up and running for further troubleshooting.
During a clean boot, the CN3 first looks for the SSPB files on an
installed miniSD card. If no card is found, the CN3 loads the
SSPB files in the Flash File Store. Files found on a miniSD card
during a clean boot are copied into the Flash File Store and
overwrite the existing SSPB files.
To clean boot the computer
2 Remove the battery pack from the back of the CN3.
3 Use the stylus to press the Reset button on the back of the CN3.
4 Insert the battery back into the CN3, and immediately press and
hold the Power button and both buttons on the left side.
5 Continue to hold the Power button and both buttons on the left
side until a Warning message appears on the display.
6 Release the Power button and both buttons on the left side, read
the message, and press either button on the right side to continue.
7 Wait for the CN3 to load files from its ROM.
Note: You can also clean boot the CN3 using the SmartSystems
console. To clean boot the CN3 using the SmartSystems console,
right-click on the CN3 and select Intermec Power Tools > Clean
Boot Device.
100
Cleaning the CN3
To keep the CN3 in good working order, you may need to clean the
imager or camera window and the touch screen. Clean the window
and the touch screen as often as needed for the environment in which
you are using the CN3. To clean the CN3, use a solution of ammonia
and water.
There are no user-serviceable parts inside the CN3. Opening the
CN3 voids the warranty and may cause damage to the internal
components.
To clean the imager window, camera window, and touch screen
2 Dip a clean cloth towel in the ammonia solution and wring out
the excess.
3 Wipe off the imager window, camera lens, and flash area. Do not
allow any abrasive material to touch these surfaces.
4 Wipe dry.
